nah they tried to make the inhumans more popular than the x-men...didn't work so they put out some more focus on newer x-men books and less focus on inhumans books(which is why there's less Inhuman books than x-men books now)

X-Men Now has

1.old man logan
2.weapon x
3.x men gold
4.x men blue
5.jean grey
6.iceman
7.cable
8.generation x
9.astonishing x men
10.all new wolverine

while inhumans just have

1.Ms Marvel
2.Mosaic(sure it's canned now though?)
3.secret warriors
4.Royals
5.Black Bolt



so in reality it's pretty much 10 x men books against like 4 inhuman books

That's a great roster.

however each issue will have a different artist I'm not a fan of that but apparently the big bad they gotta face(Shadow King)lives in the astral planes where anything can become reality and battles are won with sheer willpower and telepathic force(which is why Psylocke is on the team) so they use the rotating artists to show that things are constantly changing with them in his dimension and unable to stay coherent

I stopped reading Marvel Comics in 2014, when my last subscription expired. As far as I am concerned, the movies have replaced the printed stuff.
